## Description

Two editors in one app. The classic notepad you already know how to use, and a modern one for when the file you have opened turns out to be code.  
  
No account. No sign-in. Nothing to set up. Install it and start typing.  
  
📝 THE CLASSIC EDITOR  
  
It opens straight into an empty page, the way the desktop notepad always did. File, Edit, Format — the menus are where you expect them, and so is everything under them.  
  
• Open and edit any plain text file, whatever its extension  
• Find and replace, with match case and a running count of matches  
• Undo and redo, cut, copy, paste, select all  
• Save As, including changing a file's extension to whatever you need  
• Nine fonts and sixteen text sizes  
• Starts in well under a second and stays out of your way  
  
🌙 THE MODERN EDITOR  
  
The same files, a better way to work with them.  
  
• Syntax colouring, picked up from the file the moment you open it  
• Every file in its own tab — keep up to ten open and move between them without losing your place  
• Line numbers, word wrap, tab size and current-line highlighting  
• Light and dark themes  
• Find and replace  
• Your open tabs are waiting for you the next time you come back  
  
💻 LANGUAGES IT COLOURS  
  
• Java, Kotlin, Swift  
• Python, Ruby, PHP  
• JavaScript, TypeScript  
• C, C++, C\#, Go, Rust  
• HTML, XML, CSS  
• JSON, YAML, SQL, Shell  
• Markdown, and plain text  
  
📂 FILES IT OPENS  
  
• TXT, LOG, CSV, MD, INI, CONF  
• JSON, XML, YAML, HTML, CSS, JS  
• JAVA, KT, PY, PHP, RB, GO, RS, SQL, SH  
• Anything else that is really just text, whatever it calls itself  
  
🔒 OFFLINE, AND PRIVATE  
  
• Nothing you write is uploaded — the app has no way to send a document anywhere  
• No account, no profile, no email address, nothing to sign in to  
• Works with no connection at all  
• Your files stay in your own storage, opened from it and saved back to it  
  
💡 WHAT PEOPLE USE IT FOR  
  
• A shopping list you can open and close in three seconds  
• A log file nothing else on the phone will open  
• A stray comma in a JSON config, fixed on the bus  
• A stylesheet you want to actually read, with the colours in the right places  
• Notes on a document someone sent you, without waiting for anything to sync  
• Renaming a .txt to a .csv because that is all it ever needed  
• A scratchpad that is just a file, not an account  
  
It is small, it is quick, and it does not get in your way.
